IL feet 9 inches high, inside dimensions.
The walls surrounding this treasure
house will be feet inches thick. If
an enterprising burglar should try
to effect an entrance by way

heavy doors, and each cell has its own
door. The architects claim that the
vault is fire and burglar-proof, but it will

/ found the natives so peaceable and

at the hut of native, an invitation to
dine was accepted. No member of the
family sat down with me, so great was
their respect. They remained standing
until had done. On leaving the men ali

always reserved until approached, but re-
spond to gentlemanly inquiry with quiet
mOdesty. The women, according to the
USUAL custom, are seldom welded by &C.
cTesiastical ceremony. Matrimony is too
dear as performed through the instru-
mentality of the padre, and the proba-
ton demanded by the red tape of the
church before espousing is irksome. So
when the native man thinks of taking a

handle), and an acre or so of ground.
After cutting from the land the brush

bananas or plantains, which bear fruit in

dren are not educated nor clothed, nor
is any provision necessary. Nature pro-
vides so beautifully for nearly all their
wants; why should they worry about
their next meal? There is a bunch of
bananas and plantains maturing every
day for perhaps 100 years without any
further attention. Fish are abundant in
the stream passing by their door. The
man wants straw hat, which the woman
provides, woven by her hands with the
grass near at hand. The woman weaves
covering cloth from the inner bark of a
palm tree, colored green, just sufficient
to meet what modesty demands. The
man sometimes wants dime for gam
bling, or whisky, or gEolpowder, which is
provided by the woman, who does the
gold washing and principal labor.-Choco

POWER OF the Industrial school.

No one panacea of any reformer fits
the case or can alter existing conditions.
Only what man S own soul sees as good
and wills to possess is of faintest value to
him. No attempt at cooperation can help
till the worker sees its power and use and
is willing to sacrifice where sacrifice is
necessary; to work and to wait in pa
tience. Such power is born in the indus
trial school in its largest sense; the school
that trains heart and mind as well as eve
and hand, and makes the child ready for
the best work its measure of power can
know.-Helen Campbell
